My Baby - Week by Week Pregnancy

Week 32 - Doubling in Size

Your baby is just under 17 inches long from head to heel and weighs almost 4 pounds. He or she will gain weight more quickly now and will probably double in weight between now and his or her birth.

Just like a newborn, your baby sleeps most of the time. He or she even experiences rapid eye movement (REM) sleep, the period of sleep when we dream!

This week marks the peak of your baby's movements; from now until delivery he or she will have very little room to move around and you will probably notice a marked decrease in kicks, punches, and rolls.
